Can you solve the Mysteries of Westgate?

Today Atari announced the first Neverwinter Nights 2 Adventure Pack will be made available for download this fall. Titled Mysteries of Westgate, the new content includes hours of additional story, newly recorded voice acting, and fresh music.

Mysteries of Westgate is being developed by Vancouver-based Ossian Studios, makers of the Darkness over Daggerford module for the original Neverwinter Nights. Set in the Forgotten Realms city of Westgate (which Atari thinks Dungeons & Dragons fans should recognize), the pack grants players the use of a mighty but cursed item associated with a mysterious group called the Night Masks.

"Our premium module program for the original Neverwinter Nights was an enormous success due to the sheer amount of new, high-quality content we provided in each adventure," said Hudson Piehl, VP of Product Development, Atari. "With our new Adventure Packs, such as the upcoming Neverwinter Nights 2: Mysteries of Westgate, we are evolving the premium module: fans can expect higher production values, deep storylines, and lengthy new campaigns they've come to associate with Neverwinter Nights."

The Mysteries of Westgate single-player campaign will be non-linear with plenty of side quests constituting around 15 hours of gameplay.
